All the players in the big Lakers at Dallas showdown game are available for your lineups in our latest $4K Saturday NBA Slam.

The NBA has a busy 9-game schedule for Saturday, with top teams Chicago, Miami and San Antonio also in action.

It’s $10 to enter for a shot at $4,000 in prizes, but as usual, players who join from ocregister.fanduel.com can get their entry fee back if they finish ahead of Kevin Ding and myself.

Don’t miss this chance to pair Derrick Rose with Kobe Bryant in an MVP backcourt, with Dwyane Wade (all pictured at right in the All-Star Game) and perhaps rookie John Wall. That won’t leave a lot of budget for the rest of your lineup, though.

UPDATE: Because the Miami-Memphis game has an early tipoff, it wasn’t included in this week’s contest. So you can’t have Wade, or LeBron James, or Zach Randolph. Sorry I didn’t notice this sooner.
